Delhi Hospital Treats Teen with Rare Stage 3 Bone Cancer After Critical ICU Care

A 17-year-old girl with advanced Stage 3 Ewing's sarcoma, a rare bone cancer, was critically ill with respiratory distress and septic shock at Fortis Hospital Shalimar Bagh, Delhi. A large rib tumour had occupied her right lung, leaving only one functioning lung. After intensive care, ventilator support, and chemotherapy initiated in the ICU, she gradually improved and was weaned off respiratory support. Subsequent scans showed the disease remained localized, improving her prognosis with continued treatment.
